The month of October came and went leaving more panic about the global economic situation - evidence of a Shock Doctrine strategy necessary for the installment of a New World Order. The US election show is following its course, ready for the "grand finale" in just a few days, while behind the curtain US troops are being called back home to take care of any possible civil unrest.

Meanwhile, the sun is still taking some time off, more fireballs are lighting the sky, and we were surprised by an early arrival of extreme cold weather. Flu pandemic scares came with it, but we believe they are not really related to the weather. There is also an increase of reports of UFO sightings and cold-blooded acts by pathological individuals.

But hang on, because there is always hope!

Welcome to the New World Order

The first thing we need to understand is that this global economic crisis is not going to be solved with government bail-outs. Adrian Salbuchi is an Argentinian analyst who lived through the crisis in his country, so he knows what he is talking about. He writes:

19 September 2008: Henry Paulson, Bernard Shalom Bernanke and Christopher Cox (chairman of the Securities & Exchange Commission - SEC) submitted to Congress an urgent 3-page Bail-out Plan (similar in style to Argentina’s "financial armouring" of December 2000 which paved the way for 2001’s total financial meltdown), to the tune of u$s 700 billion which is supposed to stop further banking and financial failures in the US and worldwide. The urgency of the matter could be read in their panicky faces nut the bill crashed in the House of Representative which rejected it on 22-Sept-08. It has since then grown to a 450-page dossier, now approved by the Senate and being resubmitted to the House.

Paulson and Bernanke seek "superpowers" from Congress, similar to the ones that former economy minister Domingo Cavallo wrenched from Argentina’s Congress in 2001, which led to total collapse. In various declarations, president George W Bush stressed time and again the dire situation of this "national emergency". When asked how the amount of u$s 700 billion was arrived at, Bernanke replied that it represents 5% (!!!) of mortgages that have become non-performing. Independent analysts, however, reckon that this 5% is insufficient to cover all bail-outs and that we need to look at 10, 15 or 20 percent of non-performing mortgages, which would turn bail-out figures into unfathomable amounts. Rejection of the bail-out plan on "Bloody Monday" led to a collapse of the Dow Jones Industrial Index by 778 points (more than 7%) and a 16% fall for financial institutions. Not surprisingly, in their 21st September edition the London newspaper The Daily Telegraph pointed out that we may be edging towards a US Government default on its entire u$s 13.5 trillion debt.

Even Bernanke suggested that we were heading for a recession and at some point in September he said they had "lost control". In fact, it is bizarre that the tone of the remarks is so grim; if they want the crisis to be solved, shouldn’t they be speaking a bit more optimistically? But no; the IMF was actually speaking of a global meltdown. The message seems to be that we all need to panic.

So the leaders of the Group of Seven industrial nations met to come up with a ’solution’. In short, they announced that they will be holding a global summit that promises to be a New Bretton Woods and reshape banking. French President Nicolas Sarkozy declared that it should lead to "a new capitalism" and UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown spoke of "very large and very radical changes" and urged "globally accepted standards of supervision and regulation [be] applied equally and consistently in all countries."

It’s starting to look like we have all been had with a Shock Doctrine style maneuver. They created the problem, and now they will offer us a ’solution’: Something that we would not have accepted without a crisis like we are seeing now. They will argue that the new technocratic, centralized and authoritarian measures are "painful but necessary", that it’s good for us all, and that we don’t have any other option anyway. As SOTT economic commentators Donald Hunt and Simon Davies wrote recently:

We believe that the current ‘crisis’ is just one group of shocks in a series that will occur over the days, weeks, months and even years to come. There is a discernible direction in which we are being led. Gordon Brown, Nicholas Sarkozy and George Bush have been busy promoting the need for a "New Bretton Woods". The original "Bretton Woods" agreed in 1944, in secret and after two and a half years of planning, established the framework for the post war economic order that we see today; an order that was fundamentally inequitable in conception, has concentrated vast wealth in the hands of a very few and has resulted in untold suffering, starvation and death for those outside the privileged economies of the west. The essential tenets of this order were dictated by the US as ultimate victor in the Second World War, Europe having been utterly devastated physically and economically. Free trade and free markets were the order of the day as was a ‘pegged’ currency system with the US dollar as de facto global reserve currency.

For more details on what this New Bretton Woods may represent for us, make sure to read Hunt and Davies’ latest analysis. Among other interesting points, they observe that:

We have an apparent building of differing philosophical camps; Europeans want what their predecessors wanted at Bretton Woods, a regulated interventionist capitalism and the Americans wanting business as usual, free markets, free enterprise and free trade. The US position will win although there will be a sop to the European position which will not control the powerful but will further reduce the freedoms of normal people. There will be further restrictions, intrusions and limitations into our private finances.

Indeed, it is interesting to see how these changes are disguised with confusion. There is one theme that has appeared repeatedly in several publications, and that is that Karl Marx was right after all, and now governments of the world are behaving like ’socialists’, because they are intervening in the banking system. Marx may have been right in pointing out that the logic of capitalism implies recurrent crisis, but rest assured that no socialism is coming our way - not if you define socialism as the sources of wealth and the means of production belonging to the people.

What we are witnessing, in fact, is a process by which the biggest financial institutions swallow the smaller ones, becoming thus larger and larger, not unlike what we call monopolization. At the same time, governments are also engaged in assimilating segments of the financial world, all the while planning to create some sort of supra-national entity that blurs the line between states and banks, and which oversees all money related matters for everyone. In other words, this is a process of concentration of wealth and power in a few hands.

It is ironic, because the sort of communism that the world has ever known - think of Stalin - bears little difference with the extreme form of capitalism which goes together with fascism. The extremes meet, as in a circle. The wealth, the power of decision, the military, the means of production: they all land directly or indirectly on the hands of the pathocrats, whether they are dressed in red or blue. Does it really matter if the elite is called state, government, bank, the People’s Party, or something else?

This time, however, is on a global scale: the New World Order.

A bit of speculation

Gordon Brown argues that "we need an early warning system for the world economy." That is the excuse: we don’t want these things to happen again. So first they will offer a series of financial measures designed to regulate banks and stop speculation, and everybody will nod in agreement.

As time goes by though, they may wish to extend their warning system, not just to the brokers of the world, but also to the masses. After all, the common people take a part in the collapse or booming of an economy, depending if they invest their money or hide it under their mattress. So, given the right conditions and after a few more months or years of recession and gentle conditioning, they may come up with an argument like this:

"Banks have been in danger because of greedy ‘loose cannon’ speculators. We have taken care of them as best as we can, but we have now realized that the masses in panic can also bring the system down if they decide to get their cash out all at once. If everybody had confidence and discipline, there would be no problem and the system would go on nicely. But we cannot leave things to the whims of the masses anymore. We need a system that will not allow for everyone to make silly moves at the same time. We cannot trust on people taking care of their own cash cause it hurts the system, and therefore it hurts everyone. On top of that, we already see that many banks are having trouble getting enough cash to cope, and in spite of the bail-outs they are collapsing.

"But what is cash anyway, if not an invention of human beings? It is merely an artificial representation of material goods. So we can solve the problem simply by reinventing cash in a controlled fashion. We have now the advantage of technology to do so. So we can create a single global computerized system based on e-money, with a centralized conglomerate of banks, or a single bank authority backed by the world governments, which through virtual intelligence technology will guarantee that individual bankers, financial speculators and the masses don’t make waves in the system. Besides, we have tried everything else already and we are still in recession. At this moment this is our only option and if we don’t do it, lots of people are going to lose all the money in their accounts and we will be back in the Middle Ages.

And then, after some time of living almost exclusively with e-money, they may add:

"This new system poses practical problems, such as people having to rely on plastic cards for all their money and therefore risking loss, theft or fraud. To solve this, we can offer people to have their accounts linked to implants, tattoos or fingerprints. It will not be compulsory, of course, but that will be the trend from now on and we expect everyone to join sooner or later."

You may think: So what? If money is just artificial representation, what difference would it make if it is on paper or electronically? A big one, we think. We would be immersed in a control system in which every transaction would be under surveillance and registered somewhere. We would not really be owners of our money, but we would rather be ‘allowed’ to use a technological system over which we have no control. Except that there would not be any opting out - unless you are ready to starve. Would you be brave enough to dissent under such conditions?

It would be like being forced to play Monopoly in order to pay for food and shelter, except that the owner of the game makes up his rules at convenience, knows everything about you, keeps your money for you while you can only see your balance on a screen, and will not let you play anywhere else.

By the way, the propaganda is already underway:

It’s not who votes that counts
The US presidential elections are upon us. Since we only have to wait a couple of days to see how things will turn out, we decided that we wouldn’t propose one most likely outcome. Instead, we will point out a few interesting items of the month, because some of them will undoubtedly turn out to be hugely important after the fact.
to have died down
In an ideal democracy, it would be an entirely decided game by now. However, we do not forget that the last two elections were and by the current occupier of the White House. We do not know if history will repeat itself, but we do know that at least some are already trying to make it happen. The difference is that this time, the gap between Obama and McCain in the polls will make the story harder to sell.
Simpsons episodea preference of their own
Mark Crispin Miller, author and professor of media culture and communication at New York University, the election can be stolen, and is interested in stealing it: Notice the significance of religion! As we have repeatedly warned in Sott.net, Dominionist Palin (and others) are for "God". So when Palin declares that the election result rests in , we need to pay attention. Maybe she had a chat with the Big Guy and was reassured that HE is doing the counting?

As Crispin Miller explains in the interview linked above, a fraud needs a narrative. If the election is stolen, people need to believe that it was possible that McCain won legitimately. This seems to be the only purpose of a that reported that Obama and McCain are head to head, when all the rest of polls give Obama between a six and ten point lead. It is also for reasons of narrative that television network executives decided based on exit polls on election day. They argue that they got it wrong with Al Gore and John Kerry - which is ironic because they actually got it right.
constitution-free zonespreparing for civil unrestif Obama losesintolerancemob mentality
If Obama’s victory is accepted - whether immediately or eventually - there are a few things we must be aware of. Most remarkable are Democratic vice presidential nominee predictions for an Obama presidency: It sounds like they have been given their script should they actually get the role in the play! That the war of terror and the confrontation with Russia are mentioned as part of the agenda for Obama serves as a reminder that the corruption in the system is systemic. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter who provides a face for the presidency, as the structure of power has already decided the general direction to be followed. Add to Biden’s declarations the fact that Obama’s team by Bush staff after warnings about a terrorist attack, and that ("there are WMD in this satellite picture, really!!") has endorsed Obama, and we cannot hope for any real changes for the benefit of the people of the US and the world. The most we can expect is that the empire will get a new facade.
Bring the troops back home - but not like that!
It cannot be stressed enough how significant it is that the First Brigade of the Third Infantry Division (three to four thousand soldiers) has been deployed in the US this October - and just in time for the elections. This army unit was , by the way, so they know how to subdue crowds thanks to their experience with angry Iraqis. has been sounding the alarm, that this amounts to a , but no one seems to care enough.
quotes

Despite conspiracy theories that this could be a first step toward martial law in the U.S., there won’t be tanks on Main Street or active-duty troops putting down demonstrations. That is barred by federal law banning the military from being used on U.S. soil for domestic law enforcement.

Instead, the soldiers of the 1st Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division at Fort Stewart, Georgia, have been training to back up civilian authorities in providing medical care and dealing with chemical, biological, high explosive or nuclear attack.

The Army Timesreportedhandle domestic crowd control and subdue ‘unruly individuals’ with ‘lethal and nonlethal technologies’
That is bad enough. But on top of that, the new NorthCom story argues the possibility of attacks with weapons of mass destruction. This is not a surprise, really, since we have been conditioned with terror scares of various levels for at least the last seven years. And that is the reason we ask: why is it that they decide to deploy the troops? Especially given that there are already civilian branches of government perfectly capable of dealing with emergencies, should there be any.
What if they gave a war and nobody went?
For years now, we have worried about Israel and/or the US bombing Iran. It didn’t take a genius to see that they were using the same disinformation tactics used with Saddam. The logical conclusion has been that they are planning to do the same with Iran. However, while some are still warning about the , it is true that the neocons seem to have lost their enthusiasm for war, at least in public.

attributes it to Russian deterrence. Particularly since the Georgian war, Russia has been sending clear messages to the US that it does not intend to sit down and watch. (You can read our for more on the awakening of the Russian Bear.) Of course, if the war on Iran has been canceled or postponed, that’s one piece of good news (for a change!).

At the moment, things are in the air in terms of geopolitics and war. But take a mental note that while the G8 leaders are planning meetings to create a New Economic Order, the military leaders are also having high level meetings - except that they are doing so quietly. Surrounded by secrecy, generals and admirals from at least the US, France, Germany and another country, "possibly Great Britain," , N.Y. State.

I was woken up by the sound of hailstones thundering down on the roof. I thought it was the end of the world. I looked outside at about 1am and there was a river of ice coming down the street. It was a total freak of nature. It wasn’t even on the weather forecast. They said there would be rain but nothing like this. It was absolutely crazy.

Adding to the odd weather, floods have caused deaths and damages, and, 100 people died and 7,000 became homeless due to floods by torrential rain.

"culling the herd"
What clues do we have? There have been expeditions to different parts of the world to recover DNA sample from victims of the 1918-19 pandemic. That period saw more deaths from influenza than the war which preceded it. Furthermore, it targeted young, healthy adults. Just the sort of demographic a pathocracy can do without.
manufactured threat:

Our best intelligence estimate is that pandemic Avian Flu already exists. It appears to have been turned into a massive viral threat through bioengineering by the United States, fusing the deadly genome of the 1918 Pandemic, mis-named the "Spanish Flu", with the DNA of the H5N1 virus in a growth medium of human kidney cells to make sure that the virus recognizes human cells and knows how to invade them.

Please re-read that paragraph again and consider the threat that poses to you and your family.

The Spanish Pandemic Rides Again

The genome of the 1918 pandemic so-called "Spanish Flu" was recently intentionally resurrected. Because of that resurrection, the Avian Flu, and its vaccine, are now a US government-instigated threat to life - your life.

The Spanish Flu, which was not Spanish at all, was created in the US through an early bioweapons program and injected into healthy young men (i.e., ’soldiers’) as the first mandatory vaccination in the military during WWI (also known as the "War to End Wars" and the "Great War"). The "Spanish Flu", which originated in Kansas on US Military bases, killed a minimum of 50 million people worldwide (650,000 Americans). It was one of the deadliest pandemics in modern history. It was also one of the most successful biological weapons ever created.

Along with the nuts and bolts research, there has been a long and careful project of psychological programming. We have the annual warnings about the influenza for which everyone dutifully lines up for shots, plus the heavier hitters about every third year or so; SARS, Avian Flu, etc.There have also been the and messages (our Dear Leaders do love us after all), plus some guilt-tripping for the few who are it all. Then there is this: But mostly we are a well-trained bunch, and things should go off without a hitch. How to get the ball rolling? "It came out of nowhere" has the right note of panic. But everything comes from somewhere. In this case, how about an accident at a ? The last outbreak of foot-and mouth disease in the UK provides a . Of course, that little factoid will never make it to the news. Or if it does, it will be a "tragic event" among many other "tragic events" where the government "did its best to protect us".
